Well I just was in the position of needed an external
3.5 case so I
searched and agonized, finally choosing to get a
IcyDock & a AMS Venus
DS3. I tested the no-fan Icy first and found it ran
<40C under continous
disk usage for hours so I put the unopened fan equiped
DS3 up on eBay.
Would recommend either brand, with emphasis on the Icy
since it's got a
removable tray that can be docked into a mutli-drive
PC bay made by
them. These were SATA to SATA+USB cases but they also
make IDE models
and ones that are Firewire+USB.
About $50+S&H from NewEgg and elsewhere.
